What is 5-ALA?

Essential for Plants Healthy Growth

5-ALA (5- Aminolevulinic Acid) is one of the important amino acids existing in plants and animals.

In plants it is a structural element of chlorophyll which is an essential substance for photosynthesis to produce energy that plants use for their healthy growth.

Plants that are given the right amount of 5-ALA would increase the amount of chlorophyll and enhance their ability to photosynthesize.

It is also used as an additive to pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and fish and shellfish feed.
